A portrait of a friend done in metallic acrylics based on the digital art 3D render as a reference.

Finally finished the painting based on the 3D art which was a portrait of her. The 3D I printed on a pillow for her... and just sent off her painting , yay. It is hard to get detail by being limited to the thickness of brush tips... which makes painting In Real Life more challenging than digital , where you can zoom to the size of pixels. Yes I used metallic paint, so lighting changes within the painting depending on what angle the light shines on... Hard to depict in photo, looks way more interesting in real life.

A gift artwork for my friend whom I met at the Art Studio, we are both upset that the studio has been closed. I decided to create her up as a fairy. I have done the digital work, to get ready to start painting it on canvas. It isn't a large canvas but a medium sized one, A3+ size , which is medium in my terms of painting, as some of my work has been done on relatively large canvasses, including a large piece of wood.
